Four iconic volcanic peaks—Vesuvius, Vulcano, Stromboli and Etna—are never far from view on this 11-day journey through the best of Southern Italy. From the quintessentially Italian city of Naples to Sicily's medieval villages and lush landscapes, this adventure has much to offer the vertically-inclined explorer. Our journey is a unique blend of breathtaking day hikes and enlightening cultural immersion. Explore the Isle of Capri, hike the unforgettable "Path of the Gods", and visit the cliffside villages of Ravello and Positano on the Amalfi Coast. Wander through narrow streets lined with cafes serving mouthwatering Italian fare. We ascend to the summit of Mt. Vesuvius and venture through the ancient city of Pompeii. Hiking on the island of Vulcano, we get up-close views of the steaming fumaroles of Gran Cratere. Our third volcano hike on Stromboli provides one of the world’s best opportunities to witness fiery displays of steaming lava. We finish with a summit to Europe's highest active volcano, Mt. Etna, and a celebration in Catania with our newfound friends.
